People who like Civ usually don't like it when y'all make changes, so it's kinda surprising that Civ changes so much.

If you like a particular Iteration there is little to stop you from playing it.

Every version is an unique interpretation of the core premise.

Ehh there’s some irritant variation for sure. I really like the hex tiles but prefer the simpler leader mechanics. Not to mention backporting the end of doom stacks.

Yeah I play civ 6 a lot, my wife and I have thousands of hours combined. People have bosrd game nights we have civ nights.

I can't see us upgrading any time soon unless there's something spectacular but even then going from 5 to 6 was hard work

That is true, but sometimes technology advances and it gets difficult to get the older titles to play nice with newer hardware. That doesn't mean the gameplay needs to be completely changed up in the next iteration.

It seems more like a software issue than a hardware one. Try a VM my dude...

Sounds like a you Problem. Just because you cant get it to run doesnt mean we shouldn't have a New Civ.

Their design process is 1/3 old stuff, 1/3 reworked stuff and 1/3 new stuff. The idea is that why should release a new game if it's just the same as the last one. This is actually a problem so often that there is a recurring meme within civ communities every new release

Because after a few years they complain again when more changes are made because the current game is so good...
